Trent University Bata Podium
Settlers Taking Action and Responsibility at Trent (START) will have a table on the Bata Podium on September 30th for the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation - also known as Orange Shirt Day. A new national day of observance, Orange Shirt Day is an opportunity to remember children who were lost at residential schools, to honour survivors, and to educate Canadians about the harmful legacy and intergenerational impacts of these schools.
Come visit the START table to paint a rock for a memorial, purchase a button, learn more about the legacy of residential schools in Canada, and make a donation to an Indigenous organization.
Don't forget to wear your orange shirt on September 30th!
